I'm preparing to install the ATI 8.12 driver for my x64 system and it says I have to have Xorg 6.8 or higher installed. This is my output:
root@amd64-desktop:/etc/ati# Xorg -version
This is a pre-release version of the X server from The X.Org Foundation.
It is not supported in any way.

On other posts it has clearly stated "X Window System Version XX". Mine says X Protocol Version 11 - does that mean my Xorg version is 11?
